Irradiation Sensor Specifically Designed for Large-Scale PV Plants

Sensor Box Professional and Professional Plus

Sensors help to record the deviations between the possible and the actual power production and provide important key figures in regard to the quality of the entire PV plant. An error message is generated when there is a deviation from the reference value and its current production.

The internal cell temperature sensor allows the temperature coefficient of the modules to be included when calculating the reference values. At larger plants, up to nine Sensor Boxes Professional and Professional Plus can be connected to a Solar-Log 250, 300, 1200, 1900 and 2000. It is possible to use the Sensor Boxes with other RS485 components on the same bus.

Additionally, the Sensor Box Professional Plus can be expanded with ambient temperature sensors and wind sensors.

Ambient Temperature and Wind Sensor

Sensor Box Professional Plus Accessories

The ambient temperature sensor (PT1000) provides additional information on power generation. One problem that could arise and contribute to decreased yields is that the combination of cold temperatures and sunshine causes a buildup of ice. Such problems are easily detected when a sensor is being used. In addition to this, wind speeds can be tracked with a wind sensor and identified much better as possible causes for breakdowns, power reductions or power losses.

Precise Measurements of Irradiance

Weather Station with a Pyranometer

The Weather Station with integrated CMP3 pyranometer provides information on air pressure, wind direction, wind strength, humidity and the local solar irradiation. The local measured values give information on how weather influences the PV plant’s output. This data is available in the Solar-Log WEB Enerest™ XL portal.
